Acid Digestion

Acid digestion is a laboratory process where strong acids are used to break down solid samples, such as soil or tissue, into liquid form. This technique helps to dissolve minerals and other materials, making it easier to analyze their composition. Scientists often use it in environmental testing, geology, or chemistry to determine the presence of elements or compounds. The process ensures that samples are thoroughly analyzed for various applications, including pollution assessment and nutrient analysis, providing critical data for research and industry.
